From the Author:
What would George Washington say about New York if he returned today? After all, he was there in 1776 fighting of independence. How would Mark Twain reflect on New York as he worked there for many years?Those are the questions that led me to write a book called Amazing People of New York. I did so by developing my views on what Washington, Twain, Margaret Sanger, Dr Lozier, President Roosevelt, Captain Hudson of River Hudson fame, and many others would say about the city.New York is a great city and many amazing people have contributed to it. This book celebrates their achievements. It is for students, tourists and those that live in New York. I hope you enjoy it.Dr Charles MargerisonAuthor
